Hipster Fuel
An IPA of northwestern cut, and the beer the brewery points to when someone asks what it has for hop drinkers. It pours clear gold, with cereal malt and a touch of caramel sitting under grapefruit peel, pine and a floral note. The bitterness builds through the glass and coats rather than snaps, and the finish is dry. The recipe is reworked each time it is brewed, so the hop bill shifts from batch to batch.
